Akron and it's Secret Police

Wikipedia says Secret Police are "Secret police organizations are characteristic of authoritarian and totalitarian regimes. They protect the political power of a dictator or regime, and often operate outside the law to repress dissidents and weaken political opposition, frequently using violence." Nazi Germany used Secret Police as key organizers of the Holocaust. In Uganda the Secret Police tortured many citizens, they are believed to be responsible for over 500 violent deaths. Those are foreign countries though, that would never work in America, right? Mayor Dan Horrigan and Akron Police Chief Steve Mylett say hold my beer. During a joint conference on July 14th Chief Mylett was asked about Akron Police removing their name badges and not identifying themselves. Obviously the Chief would be furious about this......right? Wrong. Chief Mylett is the one who ordered his officers to remove their name badges and not give their information to anyone. He claims it's for safety, but what it equated to is not being accountable.


We now officially have a secret Police force in Akron, but it's just not the name badges that are part of the Akron Police Departments attempts to deny accountability, they've also encrypted their radio signals so that the citizens that pay them do not know what's going on with their employees. Secret Police is not just a name under this chief, it's a lifestyle. Of course Mylett is not the only person responsible for this shift away from accountability, Dan Horrigan is right next to him being a good lap dog and agreeing to everything Mylett wants to do.


We as a city need to do something RIGHT NOW before this Secret Police get even more out of control, before Dan and Steve continue to declare war on the citizens of Akron. We can not let these Dictators be in power until 2023, they need to be removed now. If they do not want to work for the people then we as the people need to tell them to get out of our city now. We have to let them know we are tired of the lip service that they continuously contradict with their actions. Jayland Walker is dead, Akron is under a totalitarians rule, Protesters are constantly harassed, threatened and assaulted by Akron Secret Police for simply practicing it's first amendment rights. We have to stand up and say enough is enough, we MUST take our city back from Horrigan and Mylett and we need to do it now not in 2023. Our lives depend on it.
